Sixth Plate

SISTERS FOR CERTAIN! A pair of adorable siblings stood relatively still while they were taken and placed on a resealed sixth plate. Both girls had brightly tinted strawberry blonde hair, which was very unusual. Those ribbons on their similar dresses were tinted pale green. Yes, I know that there are a few green dots and some faint mat scrapes! The innocence of the children and the effort by the daguerreotypist to produce an acceptable likeness still triumphed over the current deficiencies. The kids are kept in a sixth sized leather case without a hinge.
